Purpose:
This exercise focuses on enhancing stability through a single leg while increasing the range of motion in your hips and core. It effectively targets the inner thighs, glutes, and core muscles, promoting overall balance and coordination.
Starting Position:
Begin by elevating your front foot on a Bosu ball or a small block if the Bosu ball is too challenging. Position yourself in a deep lunge, ensuring your back leg is fully extended if possible. Hold a dumbbell, kettlebell, or plate with both hands at chest level.
Movement:
Exhale and twist the weight over your front leg, engaging your core and feeling the connection through your hips. Inhale as you return the weight to the center. Exhale again, twisting the weight towards your back leg, allowing the weight to shift through your inner thighs, glutes, and core. Inhale and bring the weight back to the center.
Breathing:
Exhale during each twist and inhale as you return to the center.
Tips:
Keep your torso upright and your core engaged throughout the movement. Ensure your knee remains stable and aligned with your toes to avoid unnecessary strain. Move slowly and with control to maximize the benefits and reduce the risk of injury.
Benefits:
Performing this exercise helps develop single-leg stability, enhances hip and core mobility, and improves overall balance. It engages multiple muscle groups, promoting functional strength and coordination.
